Santa's dilemma

Jingle bells jingle bells 
Dear Santas lost all hope. 
For the world that he once knew 
As sadly now gone Woke. 

It used to be so easy 
When there were only girls and boys. 
But now there's many more genders 
He'd rather be unemployed. 

So soon he'll be retiring 
Along with his reindeers who. 
No longer want to be a part 
Of a world that's become unscrewed.

Duke Beaufort Date: 12/22/2024 5:12:00 PM John, We need to use some common sense. This shouldn't be a big deal, and yes, woke has gone overboard. We also do know that gay and trans people have been around since creation. However, if we understand our society and those who would use this issue to generate anger, we should all be careful to act rationally. My 2 cents. I've seen both sides of this issue...it can get people riled up.

Jennifer Proxenos Date: 12/8/2024 7:30:00 AM Hi John, sad to say all is true in your poem, the world is full of misfits and cruelty and flooding, and mudslides and criminals, and, and, and children who no longer believe in a lot of things, including Santa. Our planet is somewhat unhinged at present especially when listening to the media. Blessings my friend.

Victor Buhagiar Date: 12/7/2024 3:57:00 AM Should I say four genders and so your types of presents? Login to Reply John Read Date: 12/7/2024 7:09:00 AM Hi Victor there's only two, thank you for your visit and comment.

Andrea Dietrich Date: 12/6/2024 11:11:00 PM Better to be awakened than Woke. I liked this. Is it for song parody contest? Login to Reply John Read Date: 12/7/2024 7:07:00 AM Hi Andrea, I haven't entered it into a contest. xx

Beryl Edmonds Date: 12/6/2024 12:45:00 PM What on earth would children do - If Santa went away - Who would deliver presents - On Jesus Christs birthday. - The world would be very sad - Unhappy and forlorn - To see the kiddies crying - The day that Christ was born…… Sis Beryl Login to Reply John Read Date: 12/7/2024 7:05:00 AM Hi sister Beryl, the way things are going Santa will soon be banned, love your rhyming reply. xx

Kim Rodrigues Date: 12/6/2024 12:44:00 PM And how evil raises its wicked head as it goes to the nth degree! Keep hands off our children. Schools should be teaching them. Plus nefarious parents could have their child go through a sex change to hurt them etc… Anyone who does evil to the least will wish they only had a rock tied around their neck etc… for God will surely take vengeance.

Tom Cunningham Date: 12/6/2024 10:43:00 AM Lol, John the world's gone crazy, male, female, other, rather not say and don't know. Take your pick.

Lin Lane Date: 12/6/2024 9:44:00 AM What would one give to a transgender person for a gift? I should ask Terry Flood, for he'll write a novelette about it. lol Enjoyed your humor, John. Login to Reply Jan Allison Date: 12/7/2024 4:47:00 PM agreed Lin terry is a fabulously witty poet! hugs jan xx John Read Date: 12/6/2024 11:14:00 AM Will do Lin.

John Read Date: 12/6/2024 9:54:00 AM Hi Lin, I don't think I've encountered Terry Flood, thank you for your visit and comment God bless. xx

Michael Tor Date: 12/6/2024 8:39:00 AM You are so right my friend this world is disgraceful. Years ago if someone had thoughts of being the opposite gender they were considered having mental issues and would be sent to a psychiatrist for help. Now whoever wrote this new book on behavior encourages demented sex changes and goes as far as encouraging children without parents consent who are easily influenced to get a sex change operation. This is the world that we live in and these abominations will bring our Savior back. Thanks John.

We're living in crazy times.

Jan Allison Date: 12/6/2024 8:30:00 AM ha ha ha yes you hit the nail on the head now especially with the second verse - i hate those surveys that say male/ female/ prefer not to say - personally, I'd just say YES to sex lol lol (sorry couldnt resist that quip) hugs jan xx Login to Reply Jan Allison Date: 12/7/2024 4:46:00 PM love your comment John! hugs jan xx John Read Date: 12/6/2024 9:51:00 AM Hi Jan,l wrote this awhile ago but never had the nerve to post here goes.... There's only two genders , In all their glory, That's Male and Female, End of story, So let's be honest, and make this clear, If you say there isn't, Then you must be Queer.
